Once I took the first step to set-up my Career Profile information, I started to see great results for the higher paying jobs in my job search. The service was no risk with their 30 day trial period w/ a 30 money back guarantee. Their Customer Service Department was very knowledgeable, courteous and honest. $39 Membership is a great value. If your looking for Interviews, Climber.com is for you. Sincerely, Michael Riches
This is a scam. Impossible to access once they have oversold their services. Buyer beware! After a week of constant emails and deflection to numbers for cancellation, you best call your payment choice CC company and enter into a dispute to recover funds. % 500 dollar purchase for the rewrite was told now required $ 649 rewrite to truly acquire the desired effect to SPEAK to a specialist. Do your self a favor use proven resume professional perhaps pay morel. Do look at Climber reviews I wish I had

The rep called me last week. She was rude, pushy and condescending. I have had better conversations with my backup plumber.
When I asked her for her name, she hung up on me.
That should tell you how they run their business.
Can't give negative points for the waste of my time and money. Don't trust their 1-month free period! You can try to cancel - it just doesn't go through. So waste your money for the next year with their automatic, uncancelled, charges! The bank helped me to get already some refunds. Still working on more of them! Their website and phone recordings have false and misleading information & their phone numbers don't work (input >/dev/null) - what else do you need to know?
Tip for consumers:
don't fall for this zero-value "information"

useless copies from the internet
I signed up for a resume rewrite by a Climber expert writer in February. Since then it has been impossible to speak with an actual human being. I have left voice messages that were never returned. Their website is also very confusing. There is a resume that looks like it was very lightly edited, but not a powerhouse resume re-write. Stay away and use you money elsewhere.
Got sold on the sales pitch. Site is a scam and wont refund my payment. Had to get a new bank card. If any one at climber.com reads this they can rectify the situation by giving Craig Ginsberg a refund.
Absolutely no help in getting jobs, do not waste your time or money. While there are articles on job hunting, you can find them elsewhere for free and with more information. I was billed for another month after the first because I didn't realize once you sign up, you have to actively cancel to stop renewals. I called to ask for a refund. The answer was a quick no. Do not use this website.
About 2 days after I signed up for my 30 day free trial, Climber charged my credit card $39.99. Every email I sent questioning the charge was responded to by Climber, but none of those responses addressed the charge. They'll only tell you how to cancel your subscription.

Company kept calling with a resume review, called several times to get removed from this list. One guy had the nerve to say "but you called us" - yeah - to get off your list! Last guy who answered said "but did you read it" and "that's not fair" when i once again stated i wanted to be removed once and for all from their database. Their number has been blocked but they are like a whack-a-mole. Awful, unprofessional company
I spent hundreds of dollars on this website trying to find a job. Ultimately sending resumes to recruiters never got me a call back. Also I never got a call back from any of the jobs I applied for. The service does not seem to simplify the application process, most of the time you still have to log into the prospective employer's website and create a profile. Also they have an app that is completely worthless and they know it but don't fix it. Overall I would say don't spend your money here---too many free sites like indeed and linkedin that are just as good if not better.
They push resume writing and claim they are the best, but i signed up, looking at six figures and before the 30 day were up i saw nothing on my account, except for "sent 1 bio" sent 3 bios" etc.
This is a scam for $40 a month.
Terrible company! False information and a total waste of money! Customer service is useless and do NOT return calls. Avoid Climber.com. I signed on for resume builder and LinkedIn builder--- bogus... Not once did I get a interview or my resume reviewed by any talent recruiters. CLIMBER.com needs to be stopped!
The absolute biggest scammers out there. Do Not sign up for their services. You cant cancel without filing a dispute. I wish I had read these reviews before I signed up. I would have saved myself a huge headache. BEWARE!
I thought I would give it a try. I am happily employed with an excellent job; however, I was hoping to move closer to family - so I am not in a desperate situation.
The staff was rude and condescending. I had been put into a 3-month program without being notified of the fact that there were no refunds and no money back. Needless to say, I have paid for 3-months of crap to a company with extremely rude employees who try to intimidate and bully people into buying their resume writing service.
I had to block their employees from calling it was that bad.
Tip for consumers:
TIP: Don't use this service.
This is a scam they got my 99 bucks and when I asked for a refund they won't talk to me anymore. Buyer beware I recommend saving your money and using a reputable resume service... I just had a resume done by a reputable writer and they told me how bad it was lol. Theses people are worse than child molesters and used car salesmen
I have no record of asking for any services from this company. Their website indicates I have no account registered with this company. I do not know how they obtained my banking information where they charged me 39.99 for unknown services. I have twice emailed them and twice called them on the phone, leaving messages without any response. It has all of the makings of an Internet fraud. Luckily my bank reversed the charge. BEWARE!
Climber.com is one of the most deceptive and shady resume companies I have ever dealt with. I sent them all of my information and my current rems and it cam back almost looking the same. I emailed them and complained and ask for my money back and they told me it is non-refundable.
I have been part of there monthly subscription service for 6 months and did not get one contact from a recruiter or any companies looking for people with my skill set. I am really not sure what they do - other then rip people off by providing poor quality resume writing and there subscription services is also a rip off. So I have spent about $750 with them and virtually have got nothing beneficial from there company. I say turn and run if you come across them online.
This is a scam. I wish I saw these reviews before I signed up. Not a lot of money but I am glad I am out now. They did nothing for me and are not capable of doing anything for anybody in my opinion.
Somebody should go into their office and close them down
Did not get one single lead from this service. I spent a lot time completing their forms. Now I have spent over an hour trying to get my money back from their "Free 30 days Trial". I had to call the credit card company to make sure this charge would not go through. There was a charge however not credit once I cancelled the free trial. Smells like a scam!
Wow... what started as a great call, ended so unprofessionally and abruptly. Mike, the CEO, became increasingly defensive and aggressive when I said I wouldn't commit to anything that had a cost until I looked more into Climber. He proceeded to end the call by calling me a "piece of sh*t." Run... run far away from this company. I don't care if they even did place countless people in positions - I'd never want to be associated with someone who conducts their business like that.
I couldn't believe how many Better Business Bureau complaints there are against Climber.com in the last year. The mark of a company that actually stands by their service is they're willing to acknowledge both positive and negative consumer feedback. They hang up on you if you call and delete all negative posts from their FB wall. They offer no service, won't let you cancel, and then, after you THINK you've cancelled, they bill you for months of service at one time. True scam artists and generally nasty people.
Climber.com is a fraud. It's difficult to log in to their site. They don't answer or return calls. They kept charging me even though they don't help me. I wrote an email to *******@climber.com but he would not reply me.
They purposely make it difficult to cancel. It's a dubious agency.
I called them... left message and got a call back in 1 hourl. Nice lady named Erika. She spent 30 minutes with me and I signed up for 3 months, gave me last month for free becasue I was NICE it seems... them spoke of resume. She had my critique done for free which was very helpful... Ton Heller was my team captain after that and did a good but slooow job... not her fault, just took a few times to tweak. This is not a scam... resume was great and professional and they went out of their way to help me. Sorry everyone else had a bad experience it seems.
Until today I have had a quick response, not been treated bad nor rudely. That JUST changed with this connection.
My computer is blocking their site; their 800) 374- 7113 was on the 1st two calls only commercials. On my 3rd call I was hung up on while trying to get help.

Tip for consumers:
First above all, do your research, it helps!
Connect with a live person to make sure you are being dealt with correctly.
I think for people who make more than $50,000 a year this site connects them with a lot of recruiters. If you do not make more than that, this site is not for you.
